I have been contacted by a friend who has received some Papilio ulysses supposedly from Banda Islands. As far as I know P. ulysses was never recorded from Banda Islands, and I suspect that the data may be "erroneous".
Has anyone heard about P. ulysses from Banda Is., either previously or recently?
Adam.

Never - sounds like an error.

Andrew Rawlins May be the one to ask.
Just because something isn’t recorded doesn’t mean it’s not there. John T told me he spent eight weeks on San Christobal and never saw P Jupiter then I dropped a fresh female on the table. Which of course he absconded with.
This will be interesting.

Never - sounds like an error. I suspect a commercial supplier 'error', which may or may not be deliberate. Adam. |

Andrew replied today and really doubts that P. ulysses is on Banda at all. He never saw it when he was there and neither have 2 collectors, one of whom lived there for several years.
